i PEER Science Annual Report 1st June 2012- 30th April 2013 Marine Biodiversity of Raja Ampat Islands: the ARMS, Morphology, and Genetic approaches for inventorying and monitoring patterns of marine biodiversity 1 Project Title: Marine Biodiversity of Raja Ampat Islands: the ARMS, Morphology, and Genetic approaches for inventorying and monitoring patterns of marine biodiversity Principal Investigator(s): Institution(s): Abdul Hamid Toha State University of Papua Reporting Period: June 2012-April 2013 Summary of Activities: Overview: Outcomes from this project include establishing the Genetics Laboratory of UNIPA as a site for a field station, the digitization of voucher specimens, a project web, and for databases of marine biodiversity. Other outcomes from this research also include a manuscript of Conservation Genetics and a newsletter. During the first period, research and laboratory equipment have been prepared and some field activities have been conducted. In Educational activities, we already held four workshops or training from June 1, 2012 through April 30, 2013 include the following: 1) Biodiversity, Molecular Ecology and Genetic Conservation, 2) Inventorying Marine Invertebrates and Microbes of Raja Ampat Islands, 3) Molecular Genetic Basics, and 4) Conservation Genetics. These courses had a total 129 participants from some institutions in Manokwari. We also support student’s field work practice in Raja Ampat along two months. In Research, we already collected invertebrate specimens included water sample in order to collect bacteria samples. In total, there are 33 species invertebrate that identified in this period. Among them, two species has already analyzed and in preparation of writing article for publication. The researches affair had a total 23 participants from State University of Papua and Brawijaya University. Data base of these specimens have already prepared and will be published in our website. Research related to the one species of invertebrate which was T. gratilla from Raja Ampat has been done by graduate student in Brawjaya University. We also got a new research grant from State Ministry of Research and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia. Beside that we are part of a consortium who won new NSF PIRE award to continue our collaborative biodiversity research in whole Indonesia. In Publications, we have already published 11 monthly Newsletters “Konservasi Biodiversitas Raja4” or “Raja Ampat Biodiversity Conservation” from June 2012 through April 2013. We also have a website in www.ibcraja4.org to socialize this project and other things related by conservations, biodiversity, Raja Ampat, laboratory and field methods. Book manuscript of “Diversity and Conservation of Sea Urchin” was in press for publication. Two articles have published in national journal. Beside that we were also preparing two articles else to published. We also socialized PEER sciences to all lecturers in UNIPA. The publications affair had a total 17 participants from State University of Papua and Brawijaya University. 2 Events: We held four workshops or training from June 1, 2012 through April 30, 2013. They are 1) training about Biodiversity, Molecular Ecology and Genetic Conservation on September, 2012 taught by Prof. Sutiman B. Sumitro, Luchman Hakim, Ph.D and Hamid Toha, 2) workshop the Field Work Practice for Inventorying Marine Invertebrates and Microbes of Raja Ampat Islands on December, 2012 taught by Hamid Toha and M. Dailami, 3) training Molecular Genetic Basics (DNA technology for Conservation) taught by Hamid Toha and Kuncoro, and 4) general lectures of Conservation Genetics on April, 2013 taught by Hamid Toha. These courses had a total 129 participants from different institutions in and outside UNIPA. We also support undergraduate student’s field work practice in Raja Ampat along two months. This field work had a total 10 participants from UNIPA. As a way of research building capacity for young faculty and students, our project had facilitated the faculty and students to join in research at Raja Ampat. Six participants are now conducting research with focus on invertebrates of Raja Ampat. In addition, we support undergraduate, master and doctoral students in research for their thesis and dissertation. These events had a total 7 participants from UNIPA and UB.

Infrastructure Development: In this period, we got a new research grant from State Ministry of Research and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia. The title of research is ”Seleksi dan Domestikasi Kandidat Indukan Udang Galah Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) asal Papua berdasarkan Marka Genetik untuk Pengembangan Indukan Baru”. This research began on January to December 2013. The team of this research is Robi Binur (Head, UNIPA), Adi Pancoro (Researcher, Bandung Institute of Technology) and Abdul Hamid Toha (Researcher, UNIPA). Beside that we are part of a consortium who won new NSF PIRE award to continue our collaborative biodiversity research in whole Indonesia. The proposal “PIRE: Assembly of Marine Biodiversity Along Geographic and Anthropogenic Stress Gradients” was funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation. The grant funding period will commence on January 1, 2013. Duration program is five years from 2013-2015. In this period we have already bought a camera for documentation, laptop for server database and website. We also purchased new micropipettes for training and teaching. We used these equipments when the training was running. The equipments also used in research of student and faculty who wants to finishing their study and conduct individual research. 4 Below is a list the number of new grants received as a result of PEER Science funding. International Number of research grants received Number of patent applications submitted Local (in PI’s country) 1 1 0 0 We have not yet a patent applications until now. However, we are publishing our book manuscript that will get a copyright. The manuscript was not fully funded by PEER but PEER have already made this happen as soon as possible. Publications: We already published a monthly newsletter. Until now, we have published eleven editions of newsletters from June 2012-April 2013. For socializing of our project with the program, we also launched a website at www.ibcraja4.org (look at Supplementary Information). We are also preparing manuscript three books and three articles that related to our project but not include in our proposal before. Books 1. Toha, A.H.A. Molecular Genetics (Revision Edition).

Type of Technical Publication Journal articles Proceedings Technical reports Books Book chapters Book editor International Publications 1 1 Local publications (in PEER PI’s country only) 2 Number of joint publications with U.S. PEER partner 3 We are also preparing one paper about spiny lobster Panulirus versicolor for national journal entitled: Genetic structure of Lobster Panulirus versicolor in Raja Ampat waters. 5 Technical Research Presentations: We attended four conferences and seminars of national or international in June to September 2012. First, we attended a national seminar (4th Biodiversity National Seminar) in Airlangga University at Surabaya, East Java on September 15, 2012. We presented a paper “Genetic diversity of Sea Urchin Tripneustes gratilla (Linnaeus 1758) in Papua”. Second, we presented a paper “Genetic diversity pattern of Tripneustes gratilla in Indonesia”. The paper was presented at Indonesian Biodiversity Research Center Synthesis Meetng in Udayana University at Denpasar on Augusts 7, 2012. Third, we presented Marine protected areas network, a mtDNA studies for conservation planning: A case study of Tripneustes gratilla. This paper was presented at the 3rd International conference on global resources conservation in Brawijaya University at Malang on July 7, 2012. Lastly, we present Comparative genetic diversity pattern of Tripneustes gratilla in the Indonesian Archipelago and Indo-Pacific at Coral Triangle Partnerships for International Research and Education synthesis meeting in Manila (Philippines) on June 16, 2012. I also presented a paper “Education and Research for Biodiversity in Raja Ampat and Indonesia”. Short Review: PEER, PIRE, IBRC, NESCent, etc. in State University of Papua on April 12, 2013. This seminar was done for monitoring and evaluation our project for full year. Number of technical research presentations made 5 Linkages and Potential Development Impacts: We attended a PEER Financial Workshop that held by USAID in Jakarta on November 20-21, 2012. In this workshop, we shared our activities and financial management with other institutions that invited by USAID. We also get important things from this workshop in financial management. When we held the training in UNIPA, we have any linkages developed with different backgrounds and institutions outside UNIPA. They are from government agencies in our country (Center of Research and Development of Agricultural Papua Barat, Center of Research and Development of Forestry Province Papua Barat, National Park of Teluk Cenderawasih agency, and Ministry of Marine and Fishery Province Papua Barat), from private companies (STKIP Muhammadiyah, local private university in Manokwari), and Community groups or nongovernmental organizations (Conservation International-Indonesia). We intend to expand this work in the future especially in working of biodiversity etc. Our project was visited by IBTC team (International Business and Technical Consultant Inc.) for monitoring and evaluating the Indonesian Biodiversity Research Center (IBRC) on November 2-3, 2012. Besides that team of Directorate of Bilateral Foreign Funding, National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS) of Republic of Indonesia was also visit us on December 10, 2012. Although they weren’t coming solely for PEER project, however, they also got information about PEER project from us. These important for us and the project to anticipate what will happen in the future. 6 This project was also result in significant benefits for national co-operation and collaboration with Brawijaya University, as an state institution poised to be a resource for scientific collaboration in Indonesia. This partnership creates a strong platform for research and a direct mechanism into actionable conservation. We also have started to work together with Warren Wilson College, US, in partnership on educational and research at Raja Ampat. Organization Yes USAID Yes Government agencies in your country Yes Community groups or nongovernmental organizations Yes Private companies Yes No Problems Encountered: We ordered ARMS equipments from US then ARMS shipped from Jakarta to Sorong (West Papua) since 2012. However, the ARMS deployment in Raja Ampat waters is not yet running until now. The ARMS will be deployed at the Raja Ampat waters adjust with US our partner’s schedule on summer. Because of ARMS will keep in a full year in bottom of the sea, we think to get the results of ARMS will need more time. This condition will make any problems we may have encountered in making progress on our project objectives. To resolve the problem, we have to deploy the ARMS in this summer with or without our U.S. partners. We also tried to conduct research with other method (without ARMS). By this method we have already collected many specimens from Raja Ampat. I think we have to run the same ways again in the next period. Although ARMS results will be taken, the data of this method will still function and could be compared with ARMS products. We also have difficulties related by processing ISSN for our monthly newsletter. Until now, our monthly newsletters have no ISSN. We also have difficulties related by publishing our books. Recently, UNIPA press (UNIPA publisher) did not work again and we could not get a support letter for publishing ISSN and ISBN. Therefore, we interest to set up a publisher for supporting our publications. The publisher will function and keep on both in the short term and in the long term. Plans for Activities During the Coming Year: We intend to deploy ARMS at Raja Ampat waters adjust with our US partner’s schedule on this summer. We also intend to conduct lab researches with selected young researcher from our invitation in call for proposal. In addition, we will publish activities and some of the result from field work practice in posters form, and we will upload in website and newsletter. We also planned to publish our two books and three articles. We want to make a copy of our published book and available free for all on our website. We intend to held field work with the US students and faculty in Raja Ampat on May, 2013. We will work together with lecturers of Brawijaya University, professor from 7 Warren Wilson College who will run a field trip in Raja Ampat. Our team will conduct research about conservation and will collect specimen of invertebrate. Some travel will run in the second year of this project. The project is now preparing the second year molecular genetics course, there are 35 participants from different institutions in and outside UNIPA anticipated to join 2013. Furthermore, in the second year of the project we increasing both the number of courses taught and the number of students involved. We also will expand our research projects by partnering with various local and international institutions and project personnel that have submit their proposal through the national and international competitions. Additional Comments: We intend to revise our budgeting to maximize our project workings. This is including revise in other direct costs, for instance, publication costs, workshops and conferences, and digitizing collection. We have no allocate budget for these item before. The fund will be taken from equipment’s fund that not fully used. Supplementary Information: Below is supplementary information of our project. 8 TRAINING AND TEACHING 1.

These neatly spiraled snails sometimes seen, usually in large numbers on rocky shores and seawalls on our Southern shores. Elsewhere, they are called cluster winks for their habit of gathering in clusters. But disperse to feed at high tide. The size was about 2cm. The snails brood their young. Fertilization is internal and fertilized embryos are stored in a brood pouch behind the head of the female. They are then released into the sea as free-swimming larvae.

This species distributed in Raja Ampat coastal. The shell of this clam is very thick with prominent ribs, and has reddish blotches making it easy to differentiate from other clams. The mantle of these clams does not extend past the edge of the shell, and are brownish-green to gray in color with faint gold stripes. The large opening in the mantle, which is called the incurrent aperture, lacks the tentacles that are common with other clams within the Tridacnidae family.

This character allows for an easy distinction from the two Red Sea congeners, the fluted clam (T. squamosa Lamarck 1819) and Tridacna maxima Ro¨ding 1798. The latter two species show only weakly sinusoidal dorsal shell margins. The species occurs throughout the Indonesia area including in Raja Ampat. Live specimens were found exclusively in very shallow water 17 including reef flat, sea grass beds, sandy-rubble flats, on slight depressions in barren rocky flat, or under branching corals orcoral heads, shallower than 2 m.

The other five being P. homarus, P. longipes, P. penicillatus, P. polyphagus and P. ornatus (Girsang et al 1995). P. versicolor grows up to 40 centimetres. Like all spiny lobster, this animal 18 has no claws, two spiny rostra over the eyes, and two pairs of large antennae. Both antennae are usually white with the first pair are double ended and the second hard and spiny. The carapace is white, pink and black, with horizontal bands and a reticulate. P. versicolor. Kingdom animalia, Phylum arthropoda, subphylum Crustacea, Class Malacostraca, Ordo Decapoda, Family Palinuridae, Genus Panulirus. Telescopium telecospium T. telescopium is commonly seen in Indonesia mangroves including in Raja Ampat, on mud, sometimes in the hundreds covering a large area. This large snail has a tall, conical shell strongly reminiscent of an ice cream cone. Features of T. telecospium are 8-15cm. The Operculum of Telescopium is small and circular. The animal is velvety black with a highly extendible proboscis. There is a third eye on its mantle margin, in addition to a pair of eyes at the tentacles. It can stay out of water for long periods of time. Telescopium feeds on detritus and algae from the mud surface at low tide by sucking using its proboscis (Reid et al., 2008). T. telescopium found in Mangrove and Mud, Batanta Island, Raja Ampat. T. telescopium. Kingdom Animalia. Phylum Mollusca. Class Gastropoda. Order Sorbeoconcha. Family Potamididae. Genus Telescopium. Tripneutes gratilla T. gratilla, a sea urchin widely distribution throughout the Indo-Pacific including in Raja Ampat. This species is ecologically important, especially in sea grass habitats and is a food source with good potential for aquaculture. Habitat of T. gratilla are sheltered and moderatley exposed reef. They can reach 10 to 15 centimetres (4 to 6 in) in size. They are dark in colour, usually bluish-purple with white spines. The pedicles are also white, with a dark or black base. The spines of some specimens are wholly orange, while those of others are only orange-tipped or completely white. This colour disappears when the individual dies or is taken out of the ocean, and is difficult to preserve. 19 T. gratilla. Kingdom Animalia. Phylum Echinodermata. Class Echinodea.

Littorina sp Height commonly exceeding 5 mm, and in some species slightly exceeding 1.5 cm; operculum horny ; periostracum not uniformly tan or brown (Almagorda subrotundata is brown, but usually has spiral banding ) (mostly at higher tide levels on rocly shores, or on rocks, concrete and wood in bays , sometimes in salt marshes). The periwinkles are found on the seashore in the littoral zone and sub littoral zone in all parts of the Raja Ampat. Littoraria scabra, common name: the mangrove periwinkle, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Littorinidae, the winkles or periwinkles. The size of an adult shell varies between 15 mm and 40 mm. This species is distributed in Indonesia including in Raja Ampat. Littoraria coccinea is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Littorinidae, the winkles or periwinkles.
